Happy New Year everyone

It has been quite some time since my last blog and I thought I should get back into the swing of things.

I now have a new website, check it out! www.juliesimmonsfineart.comThis last year was extraordinarily busy and the beginning of this year has been no different.I have been working on a new body of work using primed canvas as my support for watercolour and already exhibited in a solo show at Breathing Colours Gallery in Balmain.

'Abundance' Sold

'Breaking the Fast' Sold

'Fresh'

As you can see they are quite stark in their presentation but they also a delight to paint.

'Midday'

'The Bus Stop'

I am an artist working in Watercolour, Oils, Pastels and Charcoal

I am an artist who paints in all media but my first love will always be watercolour. The immediacy and transparency of this medium delights me with every painting I do. Most of my work is done en plein air, (in the huge outdoor studio). I find this helps to reduce subjects to their simple shapes and tones and allows for a more creative interpretation of the landscape. I am also a tutor at the Royal Art Society in Sydney and a workshop tutor and demonstrator.
